The Shah of Persia and Soraya with the crew of Yacht Chashvar. Nice 1957.
In the harbor of Nice in 1957, the Shah of Persia greets the crew of the Yacht Chashvar. Dressed in a dark suit, he shakes hands with an officer at the head of a line of men in white dress uniforms, all standing at attention on the sunny pier. In the background, Empress Soraya and other members of their party descend the gangplank from the yacht. The low sun casts long, distinct shadows across the scene, creating a strong glare on the water's surface during the formal reception.
